In our younger years, my wife and I did without many of the luxuries that we saw others in our generation buying so that we could shovel as much into our 401K as possible. Now that we’re millionaires, the people that blew (or still blow) their money on the latest crap want to tell me it’s unfair. Well screw them!

The Grasshopper and the Ant fable comes to mind.

That's my story too. While our associates were going on cruises and Disney trips, we were taking modest driving vacations. While they were buying mcmansions, we were buying a modest home. We still have a few years to go before using the 401k, but are nearly a millionaire, and it just pisses me off that the government is going to claim it is unfair.

Screw them. If you take my 401k I want a yearly cruise or trip to Europe, or whatever.

And if you "forgive" student loans, I want a refund on what I paid (and missed other vacations and toys because).
